The medical workers at the Rehabilitation Department of the Okryu Children’s Hospital are dedicating themselves to bringing merry laughter to children.

Its doctors and assistant doctors provide the patients with comprehensive treatment including kinesitherapy, speech therapy and physiotherapy.

They applied various treatment methods such as medium frequency liquid medicine-based treatment while keeping the patient under constant observation.

Thanks to the sincerity and high medical skills of the medical workers, the child took a turn for the better earlier than expected to the delight of his parents.
